After picking up some of these metal totes for free from a friend they were rather heavy empty so decided to modify one to adapt to my quick attach time will tell how well they will hold up but thought I'd share

I love those baskets. I'd love to come across several dozen of them.
Making it SSQA-able is pretty cool, as it's still usable the normal way.
Nice job!

That would be a good man-basket for tree trimming...but don't let the safety Nazis hear that!!

We stacked 2 baskets on forks, strapped it all down (safety!), and used it as mobile scaffold. Naughty stuff!
That's just terrible! BTW, when are you going to drop one by? 
I would assume they are from a manufacturing plant? You know, that is a real solid idea. I have a smaller tractor and was going to make some pallet type wood carriers, maybe from an IBC frame. To not have the weight of the forks on the front and just snap it on like you designed would be a big plus in capacity for me. Thanks for the idea. Tom
